1 forum posts | Hello, i have also purchased a Keighley lifts lathe some years ago, here in Belgium and it has served very well as a general purpuse lathe. It is the same model as the Denham junior MK2. I am looking for technical information like the original workshop manual, maintenence manual, parts manual, and so on, in pdf or word file Can anyone who has documents of the keighley lifts / denham MK2 lathe, please be so kind to share them with me? It has some very nice features like a clutch, power long and cross feed, gearbox-type spindle speed selector and also a lever controlled feed selector that make it a rather practical lathe for being made in the early 1940's. That's why I will restore the lathe one of these days bringing it back to its former glory so all information is welcome. Thanks a lot in advance for being so kind to share the information you have on this lathe.

Having all the bits of a Mk2 would be nice, I'm stuck with the still competent but much less user friendly Mk1 equivalent. No screw cutting gearbox, clutch or surfacing feed. |

![]() 396 forum posts 111 photos | Strange that this has come up in my search and only last month as well. I might be going to have a look at a Junior mk2 next week and wondered if someone had the manual pdf that I could gen up on it before viewing. Any owners got any advice that I can use would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Roger |
